E-Commerce Website Design

An online store allows a business to sell at any hour, to customers in any town. Iteb Co designs and builds e-commerce websites for businesses across South Africa and Zimbabwe. Each store is built to be easy to buy from, easy to manage and secure.

E-commerce websites start from R10,000 in South Africa and US$600 in Zimbabwe, depending on scope.

1. Discovery. The organisation, its audience and the gaps in the current site are understood first.
2. Strategy. Site structure, content priorities and features are mapped before any design begins.
3. Design. A custom design is prepared around the brand and its audience.
4. Build. The site is developed, populated with content and tested on all devices.
5. Launch. The site goes live, and staff are trained to manage it.
6. Support. Updates, backups and security checks continue after launch.

The starting price covers a compact store. The final quote depends on:

• The number of products and categories
• Whether product descriptions and photographs are supplied
• The payment and delivery options required
• Integration with stock, accounting or point of sale systems

A fixed quote is given once the scope has been agreed. Hosting, domain registration and payment provider fees are quoted separately.

Every site is launched with security hardening, SSL and backups in place. Hosting, domain registration and monthly maintenance are available from the same team, and are quoted separately. More detail is given on our web design and digital solutions page.
